Mr. Alan on Saturday (2019)

Alan, a swimming instructor at his local leisure centre, is wet and then damp and wet again. White thighs out in his social frameworks, Alan is impregnable on display. On this Saturday afternoon, Alan goes to Ma's house in between lessons for a family christening. He is to be a godparent. As is Helen. So Alan impresses upon his audience in his usual larger than life way. But back at the pool, Helen approaches him. In a shift of context where outcomes are less certain, Alan is confronted by the need to perform his own reputation. And Alan's version of exposure is defined.
